Working with Pearson

Opening doors for learners worldwide

"Pearson provides a pathway for curriculum development and opens doors for students to take their next steps into university and beyond to their careers."

David Slade, Vice Principal of Progression and Recognition at Alice Smith School, Malaysia, explains how a Pearson curriculum gives teachers the scope to be creative and innovative and gives students opportunities to broaden their thinking, preparing them for the next steps: from GCSE to A level and from A level on to university.
